What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
STUDY
objectivesPoor sleep, including short sleep duration, is common among caregivers of persons with dementia. However, it is unclear whether poor sleep is consistent across both self-reported and objective measures of sleep in caregivers. This study aimed to test the role of caregiving status (caregivers vs noncaregivers) on the discrepancy between self-reported and objective sleep duration.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study. Study participants were community-dwelling caregivers of spouses with dementia (n = 122) and noncaregivers (n = 53). A sleep duration discrepancy index was created by subtracting objective sleep duration measured with 3 consecutive 24-hour periods of actigraphy from self-reported sleep duration measured with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Covariates included participants' demographic characteristics, depressive symptoms, positive and negative affects, personal mastery, and caregiving-role overload.
resultsCaregivers showed a greater discrepancy in sleep duration than did noncaregivers (-0.46 hour vs 0.22 hour, respectively;
conclusionsThe findings suggest a potential mediating role of positive affect on the relationship between caregiving status and sleep duration discrepancy. As an aid for understanding the role of lower positive affect, use of actigraphy may help address sleep discrepancy in caregivers. CITATION: Song Y, Moore RC, Jeste DV, et al.
